Happy Birthday Larry

 
 
I traveled to the Far Rockaways They aren’t past the city lights And mental islands of roller coasters Curled in grey cranial canals With or without Venitian punts the choice being yours These things please me But I must admit When poets write poems ‘bout poetry Seems to me A bunch o’ bullshit Dark dank obscure and stinky Making it undesirable to Transgress on green meadows In bared feet Or wearing a red fez the choice being yours Should the chance befall me I’d open Scruffy’s Mind of Buddhist Tea And Eclectic Junk House And never Ever Write a poem ‘bout poetry Or change my name to Larry the choice being mine
